It was specifically designed to enable speedy transactions as well as low fees.
MATIC is the native cryptocurrency token that is used to power the network.
The Instagram addition of NFTs as a catalyst for growthOn May 9, 2022, Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, shared a video where he discussed how Meta’s Instagram would allow its users to post and share non-fungible tokens (NFTs) as soon as this week.
This move will be powered by the Ethereum Layer-2 Scaling solution known as Polygon and will be available to select creators.
Furthermore, Zuckerberg stated that the social media giant will begin with Instagram and will, over time, move to Facebook.
Some of Meta’s other products will also be included down the line.
Additionally, he said that creating augmented reality NFTs for Instagram stories through Spark AR, a Meta-owned augmented reality effect software, will be available.
While we initially covered how MATIC could climb in value after Polygon committed to going carbon neutral, it could climb even further after this.
This development could lead to an increase in the overall usage of the Polygon network, as well as the MATIC cryptocurrency.
